Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This seminar targets two related audiences, namely: (i) advanced BA students who want to write their second BA thesis on a(ny) topic in linguistic theory (ECTS 15); and (ii) MA1-APM4B students (ECTS 8). Its thematic focus is intended to be on filler-gap dependencies (wh-questions and relative clauses), it will however be tailored to the needs and wishes of actual seminar participants (especially for BA students).

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Students are expected to do the readings before coming to class, come to class, participate actively, take turns in protocoling the sessions, make a presentation with a handout, and write a paper analyzing some topic discussed in the seminar and giving arguments for preferring a proposed analysis to alternatives from the literature. Details will be discussed in class.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

To deepen, consolidate and advance students' knowledge on foundational matters in syntactic theory, as well as to encourage students to engage in and carry out independent research.
